RamenNoodles Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 That wouldn't be a good witness, because radar and laser scramblers are illegal Not in all states. Still legal here in MD.

Torres Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 use your boss as a witness.and point out the fact your GPS cant be wrong. or can it? i think to be a worth-while witness, it'd have to be another bystander. someone on the road or in another car. moreso for accidents since they cant see hwo fast you were really going. at least that's how it is around here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofanaticz Posted February 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 yea, its just a laser scrambler, dont believe it does ka or any other bands. but it is 100% legal here in WI. This is the unit my boss gave me. I dont usally use them for speeding, more less cruising in town when Im beating, usually by the time the cop hits you with his radar you have enough time to turn the stereo down before that cop clocking people can hear you You can never rely in a radar detector to save you from speeding tickets, this is why I only do 30mph in 25s, and 75 in 65mph. unless your going more then 12 over your usally fine. I had some cheap 20 walmart cobra in my caddy that didnt even pick up laser but I never got a sound ticket If I can get the ticket dropped by 2mph less then auctual speed Ill be happy because it drops me to the 10-15mph over the limit which is only normally a 180$ ticket and 2 points. But im willing to pay the $246 still just wnat less points. I just think the cop got the car that was in front of me that went into the left lane to pass the same semi I went to pass after he did, and he was going a bit faster then I, and from what I can tell by looking at this one guys youtube videos, the lasars have a scope and its very hard to tell 1 vehicle from 3 other vehicles pretty close together and be able to pinpoint which one is doing what speed wheen your a good 2000 feet away from them. The cop left the over pass and was on the on ramp way before we even went under the bridge he was clocking from. Just sucks because its in another county about a hour a way that Im going to have to drive to, to fight the ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like I said, Im going to try to talk to the state patrol guy my friend works for. Try to get some more indepth info on the laser guns, that the average person wouldnt know.

Benji0687 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 I had a similar situation happen to me, and the best way to get out of it (which worked for me) is to you or a lawyer (lawyers are better obviously) request the calibration log on the unit used by the officer to clock your speed. theres certain parameters that they have to follow or any tickets issued are void. I dunno if this will help but just thought id toss my .02 cents. good luck, tickets suck no matter what.

finkster Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 (edited) Best thing to do is just dress up and be honest. Judges arent stupid, and will almost always take the cops view over yours, due to the fact that most people lie to get out of things. Though you are telling the truth, they've heard it all, and are sometimes humorous so maybe you'll get one of those judges. Let us know how court goes on another note, are u sure he clocked u with radar instead of a laser? If a laser then youre screwed because the accuracy is good, as well as him being able to pinpoint the vehicle unlike radar...

Moore941 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Idk if its the same laws up there as it is down here but i took my last speeding ticket to court because i was doin 7 over and he gave me a ticket for 12 i was only tryin to get it reduced for bigger but when the officer didnt show they dropped the entire ticket no points no payment now idk how it worked but the judge told me becase he didnt show they could not continue on and he just dropped the whole thing maybe ull get as lucky, idk Quote 2000 White Dodge Durango 5.9L Flowmaster 40 Series through 2 1/2" with and open cat. 1 Dc lvl5 18 4 6.5 seleniums and 2 D200 Selenium Horns on Rockford 500.2 Big three upgrade and a kinetik HC1800 in the back with all 1/0g knu wire shootin for 145+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
